Music at Brasenose: the Wingfield Organ Day and the Platnauer Concert

Two musical events took place in the Brasenose Chapel on the weekend of the 30th and 31st of January. The Wingfield Organ Day featured several talks and a demonstration of the instrument, which is a reconstruction based on a fragment of an Organ thought to be built during the 1530s or 1540s, found in a church in Suffolk. The Wingfield Organ Day took place on Saturday 30th of January at 12.30pm, and was open to the public.
